M91's

Post by Miller Tyme »

Doing a little spring cleaning on my collection and decided it was a good time to get some pics of my M91’s. All but one is a Finn, and even though I am not a big Finn collector I keep finding my collection of Finn’s growing. I have to say the fact that most of them only got a light refurbishment ( if any) before they where issued out does make them very appealing.

Dang MT, you always amaze. I still can't come up with any dazzling comments to post about your snipers that would be worthy of the post. Is there a damn you smiley? :chuckles:

As soon as I read "spring cleaning" I thought this was a for sale thread.

Cool rifles. It is hard to buy an M91 that isn't a Finn

Thanks everyone, something I had not noticed until today was the stock on the 42 Tikka had a wooden cross bolt originally. If you look closely you can still see part of it toward the rear of the replacement crossbolt.

Guess that is why I like my Finns and SCW's, there is always the chance of finding something new about them. :thumbsup:
